Title: AJS 18CS piston
Post by: 211kawasaki on October 06, 2010, 10:25:14 am

Does anyone out there have an idea where I can get an 86.5mm high comp piston for the 57 AJ? I dont want to put a JP, they havnt been that flash in the Velo and Im not sure that they even make the hi comp version.
Any help will be much appreciated as Im hoping to race at the masters games in a month.

Andrew engineering is good, i get lots of stuff from them for AJS/MAtchless

Also you will find it handy to get in contact with the national AJS club, theres some real nutters on those models and will be able to answer all your questions and know where to get parts etc.

Thanks guys, the Mighty AJS lives again and ready to run at the Masters Games.

Was a bit lucky really, the piston was cracked and rings were broken but I got it before it let go - and it wasnt far away from that!
